Don’t let winter curb your dog’s exercise – we’ve got some indoor activities to get you moving

We all tend to hibernate in the winter months. With the Artic Vortex making the outdoors often unbearable, it’s pretty easy to turn to couch potato mode and put exercising on the back burning… you know, until the weather warms up. I admit that I am one of those people. Oscar and I are pretty comfortable cuddling together under the blankets for warmth, listening to the wind howl outside. But I’ve noticed that we’ve added a little junk to both of our trunks. So we’ve got to find ways to get moving without getting frostbite.

After much consideration and a bit of research, I’ve found a few ways that we can get off our butts without freezing them off. Here are a few we’re going to implement into our routine… and you can too!
